He lamented that the travel ban made it difficult for traders to conduct their business freely.

“We all know about Covid-19. Before Covid-19, you could visit developed countries for the holidays but now travel is a prison. If you go to China, they will keep you in a hotel for one month. If you go to the UK, they will keep you in a hotel for ten days. America is the same. So when people complain, it's because traders can't walk. Because when they leave they have to spend their money at the hotel, ”he said.
